One of Tigre's fronts for the construction of a better world are its social initiatives. Our long arm is a characteristic of internal mobilization that extends also to the communities where we are present. Whether in internal or society-oriented programs, we always put people first, through social programs and to promote diversity and equity. Know the company's initiatives:

Instituto Carlos Roberto Hansen

ICRH, the social branch of Tigre, is one of the pillars of the Group's sustainability concept, which is built on the balance between economic activity, care for the environment and the people well-being. Created in 2003, it aims to educate citizens for the future, with projects in the education, culture, sports and health fields and sanitation. FIND OUT MORE ABOUT ICRH

Pillar of the Academy of Leaders with focus on the implementation of voluntary social actions in partnership with the ICRH - Instituto Carlos Roberto Hansen - counting on the engagement and participation of the Tigre leaders.

Solidarity Attitude

Contribution of the Tigre professionals (natural person) in the part transfer of the Income Tax to the Fundo da Infância e da Adolescência [Childhood and Adolescence Fund] (FIA). The Tigre companies also participate by allocating 1% of the tax due to the FIA.

Volunteering

The engagement of Tigre professionals in Solidarity Christmas and Solidarity Easter (from collection to delivery of gifts) is an example of the collective construction of a team each year more strengthened.

Instituto Trata Brasil

Through the Instituto Trata Brasil, we seek to alert the population and government about the importance of water and sewage treatment. The Institute is an OSCIP - Organização da Sociedade Civil de Interesse Público [Public Interest Civil Society Organization], made up of companies with an interest in the advances of basic sanitation and the protection of the country's water resources, whose mission is to contribute to the improvement of population health and the protection of water resources of the country through the universalization of access to treated water services, collection and treatment of sewage, as well as the reduction of water losses.

Tigre was one of the founders of Trata Brasil in 2007 and, currently, our president Otto von Sothen holds the position of Chairman of the Board. Trata Brasil develops projects in communities vulnerable to basic sanitation and where the lack of water and daily contact with open-air sewers are part of the reality of families. Within the work scope there are three performance axes: "Água e Cidadania pela Vida" [Water and Citizenship for Life]; "Trata Brasil na Comunidade" [Treat Brazil in the Community]; and "Apoio ao Saneamento Rural e em Áreas Isolada" [Support for Rural Sanitation and in Isolated Areas]

Agreement with the Regional Prison of Joinville

To help resuscitate and reduce prison sentences, 20 inmates work in the prison itself with the assembly of pieces, identification of codes and quantities of products to be sent to the Distribution Center. Tigre ships all necessary components, packaging and labels.

Agreement with the Centro de Ressocialização do Rio Claro

In the same way as the agreement with the Regional Prison of Joinville, the objective is to assist in resocialization. Thirty-eight distressed people carry out internal activities in the assembly and packaging of products. In February 2016, Tigre expanded this partnership with 30 positions for re-education of the semi-open regime to provide services in the Accessories sector of the Centro Operacional do Rio Claro, contributing more effectively to the resocialization process.
